Two Bays Two Worlds Same Fate a photo journal

This gallery is a photographic journal of our sailing trip from Oxford Md, on the Choptank River that flows into middle section of the Chesapeake Bay to our home port of Greenwich, NJ on the Cohansey River which flows into the upper Delaware Bay . Our trip started on December 28,2015 and ended 4 days later. Our Sailboat is a Cape Dory 26, a classic full keel Alberg design with standing headroom and room enough for two on a trip. It’s a very sweet boat.

In the following post this author describes impressions while sailing from one powerful and beautiful body of water to the other. The Chesapeake and the Delaware are two Bays with two very different economic and ecological personalities but sadly sharing the same fate. All photos are by the author.
